Prerequisites

You are in the Processing Appropriation Requests transaction.

Note

The pushbutton for creating a cost estimate is only visible when certain conditions are fulfilled. For more information on these conditions, refer to Easy Cost Planning for Appropriation Requests.

Procedure

  1. On the Variants tab page, choose  This graphic is explained in the accompanying text Create cost estimate. 

    2. The screen for Easy Cost Planning appears.

  2. Make the cost estimate for your appropriation request variant. For more information on this procedure, refer to Structure link Using Easy Cost Planning.
  3. If you want to enter annual plan costs for your appropriation request variant, enter different fiscal years in the Valuation date column.
  4. Choose This graphic is explained in the accompanying text Back to exit the cost estimate.

    5. You return to maintenance of plan values. The plan value table now contains the combined costs from the cost estimate. The system interprets the combined costs 100% as investment costs, and enters the values in the column for investment costs in the plan value table.

  5. If the planned costs also contain overhead, reduce the percentage for investment costs accordingly.

    6. Note

    If you subsequently modify the cost estimate later, this percentage remains unchanged.

  6. The system creates the cost estimate when you save the appropriation request.

Note

Choose  This graphic is explained in the accompanying text Delete cost estimate  to delete an existing cost estimate. Once a cost estimate is deleted, the system resets the plan values in the plan value table back to zero. Deletion is final when you save the appropriation request.
